Hi Pubudu,

First you can evaluate  existing  loadbalancers (ex Nginx , HA ) and look
in to main features related to HTTP loadbalancing such as  Load balancing
methods (roundrobin, iphash, leastconnected) , session persistence,  ..etc.
Try to identify how those concepts works within those and come up with a
set of features that needs to be implemented.

thanks
